A superb Mouton, the 2005 is composed of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Merlot, and a dollop of Cabernet Franc. Under the new administrator, Philippe Dalhuin, the strictest selection of any recent vintage was instituted (64% of the production was used), and the 2005's 13.5% natural alcohol is one of the highest ever achieved at this estate. Critical Acclaim WS 98 Wine Spectator Gorgeous, with singed alder and juniper notes starting to strut their stuff, while the immense core of steeped red currant, blackberry and plum fruit continues to wait in reserve. A light sanguine thread weaves in on the back end, which is driven by a serious bolt of iron. Shows terrific grip, length and cut. A brick-house Pauillac built for the long haul.—Non-blind Mouton-Rothschild vertical (March 2017). RP 98 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate Technical Director/Chief Winemaker Philippe Dhalluin said this was a special year for him, because he considers it his first great vintage—he started in 2004. Deep garnet with hint of brick, the 2005 Mouton Rothschild is evolving into unabashed, flamboyant notes of Christmas cake, plum preserves, chocolate-covered cherries, eucalyptus and crème de cassis with beautifully fragrant wafts of potpourri, incense, Indian spices and cigar box. Full-bodied, the palate performs vinous pirouettes with dazzling exotic spice, floral and earthy nuances, framed by firm, grainy tannins and fantastic freshness, finishing very long and mineral laced. JS 98 James Suckling This accelerates on the palate with incredibly ripe tannins and finesse. Full body, roasted fruit, leather and grilled meat. Dried flowers, too. It shows superb tannin backbone and polish. Tight and youthful. Just starting to open. Better in 2018. WW 96 Wilfred Wong of Wine.com Well, one can say classic or statuesque, I am loving the 2005 Château Mouton Rothschild for its firm grip on the palate; while almost seems too fat in some ways, it stays the course and keeps its coating tannins in its back pocket. Deep ruby color; black fruit aromas are effusive and bright, some graphite and sweet oak show a fine interplay; medium bodied, firm and juicy on the palate, with firm tannins; beautiful black fruit flavors, tempered with sweet oak and earth; long finish, youthful aftertaste. (Tasted: April 28, 2014, San Francisco, CA) WE 95 Wine Enthusiast If 2005 was a rich year, Mouton reaches the heights of richness. Almost too rich, too New World, but you have to be impressed by the aromatic intensity of the black fruits, the dense, firm tannins, and the superripe black juice and licorice flavors. The wood is still too overpowering and needs time to settle in. Because of alcohol shipping restrictions, please review the states we can ship to before placing your order.
